Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 2/4] pie: remove unnecessary type casting

In function pie_calculate_probability(), the variables alpha and
beta are of type u64. The variables qdelay, qdelay_old and
params->target are of type psched_time_t (which is also u64).
The explicit type casting done when calculating the value for
the variable delta is redundant and not required.
